  • Haitian Immigrants Almost Lost Their Temporary Protections. What Now?

    Haitian Immigrants Almost Lost Their Temporary Protections. What Now?
    Feb 4 2026
    This week, 330,000 Haitian immigrants who’ve lived and worked in the U.S. legally, sometimes for decades, were set to lose their immigration protections.

    That’s after the Trump administration announced it would end Temporary Protected Status, or TPS, for Haitians on Feb. 3. After a federal court order on Monday, the program remains in place for now, but could still be undone. The administration says it will appeal the ruling, potentially to the U.S. Supreme Court.

    What does it mean for Haitians who rely on TPS, who could go from integral parts of their community to undocumented immigrants? Even if they never crossed a border illegally or overstayed a visa?

  • ICE And The ICE Watchers

    ICE And The ICE Watchers
    Feb 3 2026
    Thousands of people have signed up to document and protest the actions of immigration agents in Minnesota.

    They say they are legal observers, exercising their constitutional rights. The government claims they’re impeding the lawful work of a federal agency.

    Where is the line between observer and disrupter? And what are the limits to how federal agents can respond?

  • 'If You Can Keep It': The Future Of The Free Press

    'If You Can Keep It': The Future Of The Free Press
    Feb 2 2026
    The biggest news stories, the ones that shape our democracy, don’t just play out in Washington. They unfold in neighborhoods, on street corners, and around the country.

    In many cases, the first images and explanations of what’s happening don’t come from national news outlets, but the people who are there with cellphones and cameras in hand. That includes local journalists who are out in their communities. Journalists are trained to confirm and contextualize, but what does that look like in today’s shifting media landscape?

    Local reporters on the ground are crucial. But nearly 40 percent of local newspapers in the U.S. have disappeared since the early 2000s. Even the largest newspapers — providing national coverage out of major cities — are on shaky ground. Layoffs are expected at The Washington Post in the coming weeks.

    What does it all mean for how news gets made and who gets heard? What’s at stake for our democracy? And who is trying to chart a new path forward?
